Low cost national V92 ISPs?

I used one of their free accounts about a year ago when I was working for a
certain large Hightech company who didn't allow any outgoing modem
connections. I needed to access a customer system and the quickest way to do
it was to dial out over my office telephone line and I needed something with
PPP support. At the time, Netzero required their own application which
constantly sent ads to your screen. I only used it that day and not after. I
tried signing up for a free account a couple of evenings ago and of course
the login name I used was the same one that I had used previously and it
wouldn't take it (in use). They gave an 800 number to call to get the
password but I didn't have time to follow up. If I sign up with them I'll
likely go for the $9.95 account. I have Windows 2k running on my laptop with
VMware and a couple of versions of Linux as guests so I could easily use
Linux to access the network once I established the connection under Win 2k.
